The Hamas Attack—as Seen in the Old Testament
October 7…Hamas fired 3000 rockets... invaded Israel…and killed more 1200. Shockingly, that tragedy looks remarkably similar to an attack on Isarel that took place back in the Old Testament. This week on The Land and the Book, we’ll take you to a site called Lachish. The biblical account is chilling—but bears a striking resemblance to things we just witnessed.
